I'm not quite sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'll do anyway, I've been working a bit on codeabbey in oforth, and I was thinking this is the best place to place the code for more people to see, It's probably not good code, as I'm still pretty new, but it worked for me at least.

Hmm, can I move my posts myself? It makes sense that it fits better there yeah, of course I can delete my post and post it again, but then your excelent reply will be gone as well

Cool, I wasn't aware that I could treat the files as collections, that's a really nice thing, and so much less complicated than what I was doing

And the different print functions makes it a lot cleaner.

I guess I can treat strings as collections as well then, so that I can count different letters in a word and stuff too, that makes other things easier. I'm really enjoying learning about this language, so many things still that I'm doing a clunky way, then finding something better later, I guess that's something that comes with practice.

Yes, strings are collections and all methods on collections work on strings.

I think it is a very good way to learn a language by trying to do something by ourselves, then find out other ways to do it.And Oforth allows many ways to write something ...

This comes with practice, yes, but this is also my fault : I should take some time to write some other tutorials and documentation, but I have so many things to do between each Oforth release that I don't take this time. Sorry for that...

I didn't know about codeabbey site. This is an interesting site. I will subscribe (when I have time ).

That's one of the nice things to me, it feels like some kind of perverse mix between perl and python that way, there is many ways to do something, but one is very ideomatic and nice to work with

Well, yeah, I know what you mean with the free time, with full time work and a family there's already so few hours of the day that I have to do small projects, and even more when it comes to a language it's so much more fun writing implementations than it is to document it, I'm having fun finding out what I can do with it and how to though, and the documentation can also be extended later.

Codeabbey is nice, I found it in a reddit thread after project euler went down again, it's so nice that you can solve the challenges in whatever language you want to, that's what really puts it over the others for me, I also really like hackerrank http://hackerrank.com, but it still doesn't support all the language testing I do, now I'm kind of stuck on oforth for a while though, but I don't think they'll support it in the near future
